You will never understand,

You will never see,

You will never really know

what it's like for me.

I see so much

that hides from your eyes,

I hear the silence

that's filled with lies.

I walk in crowds

but feel so alone.

Quiet in thought,

deep in my zone.

I could try to explain it,

I could go on and on.

Yet no one will hear

my quiet, wise song.

You see me as young

but my mind is so old.

Listen or not, though,

the truth will unfold.

You'll call me naive,

You'll say I don't know,

but just give it time -

my wisdom will show.

My words will prove true,

My voice will be heard.

Your hate will be looked on

as old and absurd.

The time isn't coming -

the time, friends, is now.

Just open your minds

and be one with the tao.
